Orions ship was just over the clouds now caught up over the tranports. the escorts protecting the transports were firing with little luck.

"crimson grim you both take the second transport." orion said. behind him two men left the bridge. orions ship veered out of fire from the escorts. soon after from the bottom of the transport a tube from the top of the ship penetrated the transports cargo area and the two men climbed aboard with orions own gear on. the tube retracted into orions ship before orion took out one escort who went down towards the town. the call made it out to the town along with a distress signal.

"MAYDAY MAYDAY THIS IS FREIGHTOR ESCORT DELTA 3 I NEED ASSISTANCE! IVE CALCULATED CRASH ZONE TO BE A FEW MILES OUT FROM STEVASTAPOL...." the pilots body jerked forward cutting him off the ship made a deep gorge and stopped from its initial crater. the shipped sparked with no power and its hull was blown with a large hole. the pilot inside was injured and bleeding but kept mumbling about a ship coming from nowhere.
soon two other ships crashed a ways away onto the surface of venus only one exploded on impact.

in space now a distress call and beacon were both activated from the two transports. orion unaware of this was looking at the large cargo holds. his for men stood close by smiling under the masks. "well boys you did better than I thought. I congragulate you all. head to the bridges of the transports and take control ill take these crew members to the brig and ready them for dumping" orion said shoving some crew members towards the docking doors.

5 minutes later the crew were in cells and orion was back in the bridge. "doc status" orion said

"we are at full capacity the men are ready to move...we have detected no beacons or distress calls from either ship so we wont have to worry much about bounty hunters" doc reported with confidence.

"rogue freighter alpha and bravo ahead full we move to the asteroid belt." orion said waiting for a confirmation signal before the three ships powered engines separated from docking together and hummed forward.

orions smile mentally was huge, his plan was coming together, all he needed now was military tech and his own band of workers. 6 men wasn't going to make to much progress but he knew where to find criminals easily. "hmmm two more raids on criminal barges should do for labor work, finish the station build in a few hours...then the military tech can help for new ships and defense weaponry. but what about tristam....if he actually takes the messages he may find out the plan quickly but no mater I will stop him if it comes to be. and the beacon although inactive now will aid in finding him" orion thought staring into space as the three ships flew forward
As an engineer for war, a thief for hire, and a regular guy, one finds similarities to all these occupations in time.
